• New enough and large enough expansion. QPQ present. Sources check out. No textual issues. One little nitpick from me: do consider adding author and section-page information. Most newspapers from the last 40 to 50 years do not use straight sequential page numbering, and I always make sure to change "page=29" to "page=D-1" or whatever when applicable. This does require a bit of manual searching on every page but improves the end product. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 08:19, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
